Todays my birthday. Since it is my birthday and I am a Facebook user, I got the usual large amount of happy birthday wall posts. Seeing your wall cluttered with happy birthdays is a fantastic feeling. My question today is, how do we respond to these generous birthday wishes?
There is always that little feeling inside us that makes us really want to reply on every persons wall and tell them thanks for the birthday wishes, but we don't want to be "That guy." Then there is the option of the "Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone" status and if we were to do that it would make us "That guy."
Facebook has changed birthdays forever.
+ With Facebook everyone is notified when it is your birthday, so more people remember.
+ People you don't know/talk to, say happy birthday on your wall.
+ When it's your birthday you feel like a celebrity with all the wall posts.
- The day after your birthday you still want the rush of non stop wall posts, but you realize your not actually that popular, it was just your birthday.
- You don't know you to thank everyone.
Any who, I will make my status to thank everyone and be "That guy," but I will do it in a little different way. Also if you told me happy birthday today and you are reading this, thanks.
